Make a child smile on the first day of school.

May I add, Florida has an official Back to School Sales Tax Holiday. It is a three day sales-tax holiday from August 13 through 15, 2010, on school supplies, books, clothing, and footwear. I think the footwear has to be in excess of $50, but whatever, the other basic school supplies will be tax free.
